Cymbidium atropurpureum

A Malaysian Cymbidium
Unlike to common lowland Cymbidium finlaysonianum, this species features heavy red and maroon colors and the flowers are somewhat smaller at sea level. This is from Gua Musang, Kelantan. The plant there have better showing with larger flowers and longer inflorescence stalk. We can conclude that it maybe due to the cooler weather there as compared with Klang's badly poluted air for the last 2 months.
Also shot a HD Video here.


Also to note:- We lost numerous species here in our home in Klang due to the heat and pollution.

Coelogyne speciosa


This is a rarer Coelogyne. The flowers are large and have a good tone of beige color. It was discovered at the upper reaches of a waterfall in Kelantan. The leaves are palm-like. It is also easy to grow at lowland but with a slightly heavier shade.

Bulbophyllum lobbii


Our all time favourite Bulbophyllum. This one is from Tras Pahang with its beautiful color tone and shade. An easy to grow even at lowlands in our home in Klang.
